The sun's reflecting off the city limit sign
I better keep movin' before I change my mind
Lookin' in the rearview mirror
Comin' home didn't make it clearer
I didn't wanna hear her say goodbyeHeartache Highway why didn't I say
What she wanted to hear
Why must the most important words go unspoken
Heartache Highway now it's too lateTo ever change her mind
Oh, it's a hell of a road
When you're leavin' heaven behindMemories of her dance in my headlights
As I'm ridin' my pain into the night
Headin' for the next horizon
Watchin' the full moon risin'
Gotta keep on drivin' goin' nowhere on thisHeartache Highway why didn't I say
What she wanted to hear
Why must the most important words go unspokenHeartache Highway now it's too late
To ever change her mind
Oh, it's a hell of a road
When you're leavin' heaven behindOh, it's a hell of a road
When you're leavin' heaven behind
